Lüm-Tec Combat B72 Field Watch

Lüm-Tec has built watches for the U.S. government and SWAT teams, and its own Combat B line was tested in desert heat and on frozen mountaintops. The Combat B72's 43mm stainless steel case is forged for strength, bead-blasted against scratches and coated in gunmetal. Its dial carries more than 30 layers of Super-Luminova, a glow-in-the-dark material, over a reflective base. A domed sapphire crystal cuts glare, and the watch is water resistant to 656 feet, with double seals at the crown and threaded caseback. Its strap lugs curve downward to wrap the wrist, so it wears smaller than it measures. Two nylon straps, in black and gray, are looped through both sides, so the watch stays on the wrist even if a spring bar, the pin holding a strap end, is damaged. Lüm-Tec replaces the battery and pressure-tests it free for life, and only 500 numbered pieces will be made worldwide.
